And quiet not just because I’ve been sick since I posted about my good health—it was only a temporary return, apparently—and flying with whatever I had has rendered me unable to hear appropriately out of first my right ear, then my left, and now both are at about 50%. It’s stupid. We went to northern…
It’s a bold move to title a post Funny. I’m in a funny mood. I’m amped—it feels like there’s more motion and activity in my job search/work search than ever. It feels like there’s motion in podcasting and h.e.n.r.y. and emceeing and all sorts of Brand Lyssa things (barf). I’m happy—I got to attend the…

The days are short, the evenings are long. Wait—that’s not the phrase?! But that’s how I feel with a baby … there’s just never enough time to get everything done, and she’s the most important thing, so I just hang out with her and let the rest fall by the wayside. Including my gratitude lists…
Here are a bunch of random things I am grateful for this week. I’m skipping the incredible MCT trip and Halloween, there will never be enough words to express my gratitude for that framily and not even food poisoning could stop us from having an incredible week together. I love y’all. Now onto the usual…
